Description

Newspaper court items indicate a receiver (David P. Newhouse/Morehouse) was appointed in litigation involving the Second National Bank of Oswego. The articles are court reports (Dec 17, 1884 and March 1885) about appeals in a receivership matter. No article mentions depositor runs or reopenings; the presence of a receiver indicates the bank was closed and in receivership (government/court action). OCR shows variant spellings of the receiver's name (Newhouse/Morehouse); I record both in snippets.
